Akaroa is indeed a very suitable town for vacation. The hotel does not have an elevator. The room is very, very big, and the bed is also very big. There are tableware and a microwave, but no stove. It is a pity that I couldn't have a steak on such a flavorful balcony.

The location of the motel is very good, right by the sea. You can directly face the sea view when you open the balcony door. In addition, there are many delicious small shops nearby. It is very comfortable to take a walk when the weather is good. However, the room facilities are a bit old and the sound insulation is not very good, but the flaws outweigh the merits and it is still worth recommending.

However, it is not bad. It is close to the sea, with many restaurants nearby, which is convenient. It is also close to the boat dock and can be walked to. There is a supermarket behind the hotel, and parking is also convenient. The facilities and hygiene are acceptable.
